Corrupted Logical Volume

[vaman]

We have problem of VAR filesystem not getting mounted. We have mounted var on /dev/vg00/lvol7 (vxfs). During Boot itself it is giving error as:
No valid ILIST's for fileset 999

Further check is aborted and var does'nt get mounted.
Kindly suggest us the way out !

We tried using fsck with -o full and -o nolog options but were unable to clean the FS.

More info on PHCO_23561 can be found here: http://www4.itrc.hp.com/service/cki/patchDocDisplay.do?patchId=PHCO_23651

It explicitly mentions the error message you mention.
